    This is one of the best houses for the price in the entire city of Palm Bay! Buy this solid block home with total peace of mind knowing the massive big-ticket items are done: BRAND-NEW roof (2024), new well pump (2024), and beautifully refinished terrazzo floors (2024). Capital improvements continue with a tankless water heater (2023), replaced leach lines (2018), updated electrical panels (2017), and new AC condenser (2016). The single-story, split floor plan features a large kitchen island, quartz countertops, water filtration, a full laundry room with a sink, a storage garage, and two side exits (including a ramp). Set back off the road for ultimate privacy, this home boasts a regal front and rear yard, a fully fenced backyard, a quiet street with zero neighbors to the East or North, and backs to a peaceful canal. You are perfectly located just minutes from Bayside Lakes shopping, the scenic Indian River, and the beautiful Atlantic Ocean beaches! *OUTSTANDING OPPORTUNITY!** This is hands-down the best house for the price in the entire city of Palm Bay! If you are looking for an unbeatable deal that combines massive financial peace of mind with absolute privacy, your search ends here. This solid block home is a true real estate unicorn--a property where all the heavy lifting has already been done for you. The sellers have invested heavily in high-value, big-ticket capital improvements, transforming this residence into a pristine, move-in-ready fortress that simply outshines the competition. **MASSIVE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS = YOUR FINANCIAL WIN** Savvy buyers know that the true value of a home is found in its structural and mechanical integrity. Buy with total confidence knowing you will not have to worry about major expenses for years to come. Front and center is a **BRAND-NEW ROOF** installed in late 2024, ensuring top-tier protection against the Florida weather and keeping your homeowner's insurance premiums as low as possible. The home's critical water systems have been completely modernized, featuring a brand-new well pump (late 2024) and a highly efficient, space-saving tankless water heater (2023) that delivers endless hot water on demand while slashing monthly energy costs. The vital behind-the-scenes infrastructure is just as impressive. The property features fully replaced leech lines (2018) for a flawless and worry-free septic system, fully updated electrical panels (2017) to safely and reliably handle all your modern technology, and a robust AC condenser (2016) to keep the interior crisp and comfortable year-round. Finding a home at this fantastic price point with this level of mechanical perfection is incredibly rare. **FLAWLESS INTERIOR DESIGN & ENTERTAINING SPACES** Step inside to discover a highly desirable, single-story split floor plan that perfectly separates the primary suite from the guest rooms for maximum peace and quiet. The floors are an absolute showstopper: original terrazzo that was masterfully refinished in late 2024. This gorgeous flooring flows seamlessly throughout the home, offering a sleek, modern aesthetic that is virtually indestructible, pet-proof, incredibly easy to maintain, and naturally cool underfoot. The heart of the home is a spectacular, fully updated kitchen built for both the everyday home chef and the avid entertainer. It is anchored by a massive central island that provides sweeping prep space and a natural gathering spot for family and friends. The premium quartz countertops offer an elegant, highly durable, and easy-to-clean surface, while the integrated whole-house water filtration system guarantees crisp, pure water from every single tap. Everyday living is elevated with highly functional spaces, including a dedicated, full-sized indoor laundry room complete with a utility sink--a massive upgrade over the typical hot garage laundry setup. You will also find a versatile storage garage perfect for your tools, holiday decor, or recreational gear. Excellent accessibility is built right in, featuring two convenient side exits, including a smoothly integrated ramp that makes coming and going effortless for everyone. **UNRIVALED PRIVACY & REGAL GROUNDS** In today's real estate market, finding true privacy is a luxury, and this property delivers it in spades. Deeply set back off the road, the home commands a striking presence with a truly regal front and rear yard. Situated on a whisper-quiet street, this location offers an astonishing level of seclusion with absolutely zero neighbors to the East or North. Your sightlines are preserved, and your privacy is absolute. Your expansive property backs directly onto a peaceful canal, providing a serene, permanent buffer that ensures no future development will ever encroach on your personal sanctuary. Step through the rear glass sliding doors to discover your massive, fully fenced backyard. It is the ultimate secure compound for children to play, pets to roam freely, or for you to host vibrant weekend barbecues and gatherings in complete, undisturbed privacy. **THE ULTIMATE SPACE COAST LIFESTYLE** Location is everything, and this home places you exactly where you want to be. You are just minutes away from the fantastic shopping, dining, and daily conveniences of the highly sought-after Bayside Lakes area. When it is time for recreation, you are a short drive from the incredible 200-acre Fred Poppe Regional Park, the crown jewel of Palm Bay, offering world-class athletic fields, dog parks, and miles of scenic trails. Embrace the very best of the Florida lifestyle with effortless access to the water. You are perfectly positioned just a short trip from the magnificent Indian River Lagoon--a boater and fisherman's paradise where you can paddleboard alongside dolphins--and right across the causeway from the pristine, sun-drenched beaches of the Atlantic Ocean. Investing in Brevard County means investing in the booming Space Coast economy. With the massive influx of tech, engineering, and aerospace industries, property values in this region are positioned for incredible long-term growth.
